friends and customers, and as many new ones
as desire TO get the best made and trimmed

cause We had to, but our stores were located
below II, on eth ST., and they graded the
street and left our floors Just seven feet above
the pavement. The landlord was In Paris.
Business had been forced OF the streets for
months owing to the deep cuts on + ST., and
on 9Th st. we could get no store to suit us at
that time In the city, ana was forced TO move
out, leaving Il splendid business. Sill tho
march of improvements demanded the grad.
ing of the streets. and individual losses could
not stand In the way of public improvements.
II was great loss to me; but the system of

While we are a little farther up seventh
street than we desired, we could not secure
store lower down. our rents are lower, and
we can sell cheaper. better clothing, at lower
prices, the result of low expenses. We arc

The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1887-07-07
IN SALEM.
SALEM, July 4, 81.

SALEM, July A, 81.
EDITOR AsroBIAS:
To an Astorian visiting this city
for the purpose OF viewing her fine
public buildings and many other
points of interest the thought will
occur, "What a long distance it is
from one place to another here"
Four or FIVE blocks is considerable
walk to one accustomed to the econ
omy of space prevailing in Astoria.
1t was sound and far-seeing Judgment
that designed these spacious blocks
and broad streets down which the
eye may follow until the perspective
blends the trees that cast grateful
shade on either side. All day the
population of the surrounding coun-
try has been pouring In until an i'm
mense crowd has congregated.
The military and various fire
companies made q creditable display,
and by no means the least interesting
feature of the procession was the
parade OF thirty-four bicyclers on
their steeds OF glistening steel.
In Marion square an immense
audience gathered to listen to usual
literary exercises, which were inter-
spersed with some excellent vocal and
instrumental music. Miss Halle
Parrish sang "The Sword OF Bunker
Hip with fine effect. Governor
Pennoyer presided, Rev. ]. NJ. Dick
delivered the prayer, Major w. ].
Darcy read the Declaration; Hon.
@. W. Fulton OF Astoria, delivered
the eloquent Grafton which was in
structive, practical in its suggestions
regarding the duties Of American cit
izens, patriotic in sentiment and was
listened to with great interest and
satisfaction by the large audience.
The bicycle races In the afternoon at
tracted a large crowd as also did the
-fremen's contests. Salem is Justly
proud of, and enthusiastic over, her
fire department, and her people man
ifest jealous interest in the perform.
snce OF their favorite companies.
When il comes to quick work, how
ever, your correspondent believes
that our Astoria fire department can
give our brethren in the interior few
points. The fireworks in the evening
closed q celebration, which was in
every way q gratifying success.
Salem is q fine city, situated in a
fertile valley Of vast extent. The day
is not far distant when its now gen.
erous limits will prove insufficient for
the human throng with which the
tide OF immigration will people its
streets in this glorious western land.
